Chapter 3219: The Ancestors Return

“Your majesty, you’ve actually taken such a great risk for such distant hope, triggering the will of the sovereign of the Wood Spirits. I-isn’t the price just a little too great?”

“We don’t have a lot of our ancestor’s essence blood, and we’ve given ten droplets to Jian Chen this time. The remaining amount of essence blood will only be able to last a few great ceremonies. Once we exhaust all of the essence blood, we’ll never be able to break free.”

“Let alone the ancestor’s essence blood, his majesty has even retrieved the items in the bronze lamp, triggering the Grand Exalt’s will in the end and having his body destroyed in the process. Your majesty, this isn’t worth it at all.”

The hall masters all grumbled. All of them felt that the price that the Darkstar race had paid this time was well beyond what they were expecting.

The Darkstar Emperor raised his hand and silenced the hall masters’ unhappy discussion. He said, “Enough. You don’t have to mention this again. I’ve obviously made my own considerations before I did this. You should just tell me the current situation of the thirty-six cities instead.”

The ten hall masters exchanged glances and all sighed inside. After a few moments of silence, it was the recently promoted seventh hall master who spoke up, “Your majesty, we’ve opened the altar twice over just a few centuries, so it’s come at a tremendous cost. Basically all the energy accumulated by the thirty-six cities over the years have been depleted. Without any resources from the outside world, it’ll take a million years at the very least as a conservative estimate before it completely recovers.”

Afterwards, the hall masters reported to the Darkstar Emperor the Darkstar race’s current situation, and they put forward suggestions.

“Looks like we still have to re-establish our commerce relationship with the outside world. Some of the resources from the outside world are also of great importance to our race,” the Darkstar Emperor murmured softly. He waved his hand at the ten hall masters. “You can go for now.”

After the ten hall masters had taken their leave, the Darkstar Emperor sighed in the empty divine hall. He sat back weakly in his throne as an illusionary figure, filled with a sense of helplessness.

After a while of silence, he murmured, “The great ceremony? You’re still counting on the great ceremony? Can we really still go down the path of the great ceremony?”

......

...

“Opening up a space in my soul is actually so difficult. It’ll basically take tens of thousands of years.”

On a remote mountain in the Darkstar World, Jian Chen opened his eyes slowly after making an initial attempt at creating a space in his soul. His brows were firmly furrowed.

The difficulty of opening a space in his soul was so great that it surpassed his imaginations. On top of that, he saw the annotations left behind on the plate of black jade by the senior who created this secret technique.

Those who possessed exceptional talent would require ten thousand years at the very least.

Those who possessed normal talent would require a million years at the very least.

The secret technique recorded in the plate of black jade even needed a cultivation at Chaotic Prime at the very least to practice it. However, all experts who could reach Chaotic Prime were prodigies of outstanding talent, yet in the eyes of the person who created this secret technique, they actually only possessed normal talent.

“The senior who created this secret technique had extremely high standards. It’s extremely likely for him to be the sovereign of the Darkstar race, as only in the eyes of sovereigns are Chaotic Primes so insignificant.”

“This secret technique is of extremely great help to me. It’s best if I open a space in my soul before I leave here. However, according to the annotations on the jade plate, I’ll need ten thousand years at the very least.”

“Ten thousand years are far too long for me.”

Making up his mind, Jian Chen immediately took out a tea set from his Space Ring and began making Comprehension Tea!

Afterwards, Jian Chen began to comprehend the secret technique as quickly as he could under the help of Comprehension Tea.

During the time he spent comprehending the secret technique, Jin Hong remained within the barrier in the depths of the Two World Mountains, using the heavenly resources transported in from the outside world to increase his strength.

The peak organisations from the outside world brought in heavenly resources with Xuanhuang Qi in different batches. Every organisation provided very little with each batch, basically just one or two each time, but when all the heavenly resources were poured together from several dozen organisations, it was an extremely shocking amount.

As a result, Jin Hong experienced both pain and joy as he cultivated in the Darkstar World over the years. His strength increased rapidly, but all the heavenly resources he had eaten basically made him want to vomit.

He had reached the Fifth Heavenly Layer of Infinite Prime now.

Without the assistance of the Grand Exalt’s essence blood, Jin Hong’s strength increased slowly. Even with all these God Tier heavenly resources contaminated with Xuanhuang Qi, he had only broken through a minor realm of cultivation after all these years.

......

In the southern region of the Cloud Plane, outside the capital city of the Pingtian Empire, a spatial storm suddenly brewed over a remote grassland. As space twisted, eleven blurry figures gradually appeared before being thrown out of space in an extremely miserable manner, scattering on the ground. They rolled for quite a distance before coming to a stop.

This novel is _hosted_ by hosted novel.

The eleven figures all lay on the ground without budging. Their chests heaved as they gasped for air. However, their eyes all became extremely bright, swivelling around in excitement.

“This is the Saints’ World. It can’t be wrong. This is the Saints’ World. This familiar feeling, this nostalgic presence, hahahaha. After being gone for so long, we’ve finally returned!”

“I didn’t think we’d still be able to return to the Saints’ World some day after all those years. It really is a surreal feeling.”

......

...

They laid on the ground, gasping for air as they voiced their excitement. Smiles stretched across their faces.

They were Yang Lie, Guihai Yidao, Feng Xiaotian, and the others from the Tian Yuan Continent.

Apart from them, there were seven other unfamiliar faces. The ten of them were the ancestors who had founded the ten protector clans on the Tian Yuan Continent!

Now, the ten ancestors had reunited and arrived in the Saints’ World together.

As for the eleventh person, that was Jian Chen’s elder brother, Changyang Hu!

“Yang Lie, I heard your descendant from who knows how many generations apart founded a clan in the Saints’ World?” At this moment, an old man in grey robe spoke up. He was the founding ancestor of the Heaven’s Incense School.

Yang Lie climbed up slowly and dusted himself off. He said rather proudly, “That’s correct. That great-grandson of mine was exceptionally talented, already possessing the battle prowess of a Godhood cultivator back then on the Tian Yuan Continent. Now that he’s cultivated for several years in the Saints’ World, his strength should be even greater now.”

As soon as he mentioned Jian Chen, Yang Lie beamed with joy, clearly extremely satisfied with this great-grandson of his. Then he scanned past the seven others slowly and smiled with ulterior motives. “The reason why the seven of you could recover so quickly was all thanks to the resources that my great-grandson left behind. Now, isn’t it time for you to pay him back?”

“That goes without saying. Since we’re so indebted to your great-grandson’s kindness, we have to repay him no matter what. Once we find your great-grandson’s Tian Yuan Clan, we’ll obviously be joining,” the ancestor of the Potian sect said. He was a middle-aged man, around forty years of age. He wore white robes and currently stood with his arms behind his back, like a grandmaster.

“But with how large the Saints’ World is, how are we supposed to find the Tian Yuan clan founded by your great-grandson? With the Tian Yuan clan’s strength, even if we ask around, it is possible that no one knows which corner it’s hidden in. The costs to use teleportation formations in the Saints’ World is frighteningly expensive too. With what we’re capable of, if the journey is too far, we won’t even be able to reach there,” another ancestor of a protector clan said in a troubled manner.

Many of them fell silent with that. They all found this to be rather troublesome.
